House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said on Monday that he “doesn’t give a damn” about claims from the White House that Democratic rhetoric fueled the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner.

Reporters asked Jeffries about comments White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt made earlier in the day that alleged that the “left-wing cult of hatred against the president” had incited the attack. Leavitt, in particular, highlighted comments that high-profile Democrats had made in the past, including one last week by Jeffries saying America was in an “era of maximum warfare” when it came to redistricting.
